neers and Atlas.

large nhmD6r OF people WlIneSScu tHc
game of ball here to-day between the
Atlas and Pioneers. 1t was a fine
contest and the Atlas had it won half
dozen times, but lost it by some of
the most careless base running ever
witnessed on the diamond. They out
played their opponents at every other
point. Lorrigan and Mullee both
pitched good game, the honors being
even between them, except that Null
lee gave six men buses on balls, while
Lorrigan only accorded four Atlas that
privilege. In the eighth inning the
Atlas gave the game away. O'Day
was safe on a high fly which Hen
more muffed. The score was then 4
to 3 in favor of the Pioneers, but
as good hatters were on deck
the Atlas friends cheered Justify and
deemed it almost certain that the Sac
ramcntans would tie the score or take
the lead. O'Day, however, was put
out in weak attempt to steal second.
Anderson then made hard hit
through Smiths hands and the crowd
cheered again, but Anderson also quit
on Carrolls fine throw to second.
Powers was given first on balls. New
bert went to second Oh n. Smith s
muff and Powers was advanced to
third. Cahill was next to the bat and
the Atlas chances were of roseate hue,
when Powers fell asleep ut third and
was put out while mapping, when he
should have been wide awake. The
score stood: Pioneers, 4 Atlas, 3.

the League and his colleagues had SO
